What Our Amazing Clients Say

Eman O. Dentist, North Andover, MA

"​Hi, I’m Eman from North Andover, MA and wanted to share my experience working with Lisa Swanson, owner of Body & Soul Coaching.

Before I started with Lisa I struggled with consistently working out. When I did workout, I wasn’t sure where to start or what to do. I had been dieting with no result; I would lose & gain the some 10 lbs. over and over again.

After reading about Lisa’s programs I scheduled a consult with her and  learned a lot more about what she has to offer & how she could help me. I realized that this is just what I needed.
 
I knew this program sounded great but I was afraid that getting a personal trainer was going to be a difficult. I’ve heard stories about how personal trainers can be pretty tough and that’s a little scary when you’re just starting out.
 
Once I got into the program I was surprised at how easy it was to follow. Lisa was so understanding and knew just how hard to push and when to lighten up. She coached my mind before my body. She helped me understand how to change old bad habits and how to add new healthy habits.
 
Working with a coach, trainer and nutritionist is so much different than working with just a trainer, or just a coach. Having it all under one roof really makes a difference.  
 
I couldn’t believe I was actually able to lose weight after trying for so long on my own.  I finally knew exactly what I was supposed to be working on and the weight started coming off. Another bonus was how much stronger and flexible I felt.  I’ve also got a lot more energy than I had before starting the program.
 
Now that I’ve been a client for 3 months, I have lost 11 pounds, 17 inches and 5% body fat!! I have more energy, better balance, flexibility, and more confidence.
 
So to anyone who is looking to lose weight, get healthier and develop better eating and workout habits, I encourage you to get started. Don’t wait any longer to get the results you’ve been hoping for."

​“I didn’t become 30 lbs overweight and unfit overnight and it won’t get “fixed” overnight.  I had the wonderful experience of meeting with Lisa on FaceTime this morning.  Wonderful because she listened, I mean really listened! She helped me make a plan, got me inspired, excited and determined I CAN DO THIS. 

The workouts she gives us are fun, challenging without being scary and explained very well – I have no problem following the exercises. Her workouts keep me from getting bored, which helps  excite me and makes me eager for my workout the next day.  The meal plan is also easy to follow.  I’m in this for my lifetime; I’m not looking for a quick fix but to really make these healthy changes for the rest of my life.
​
I can’t emphasize enough how great I think this program is, it’s affordable and realistic and Lisa is inspiring and sincere in her desire to help me on this journey into my healthy, fit future.”

​"Lisa is an extremely engaging trainer.  She is genuinely interested in your success, unlike other trainers who I have trained with. Most trainers or groups do not customize programs to your needs; they are very canned programs. With Lisa, you get customized workouts, customized nutrition (most do not give nutrition advice), and a true supporter. She wants you to succeed. Be ready to be held accountable; you will need to do the work, too."

"Wow, thanks, Lisa! I just viewed my measurement numbers and am SO pleased. 
I'm down 10 lbs 12.5 inches and 4% body fat.

All I know is that NONE of this change would have been possible without you and your support and knowledge. 

I came to you during a very tough period in my life, with lots of loss, changes, and a midlife woman’s body that refused to yield any weight loss despite my reasonably healthy eating habits. 
What I didn’t know — and have learned from you — is the significance of macros, the importance of lean protein, how carbs negatively affect my body, and how to build muscle through resistance and weight training. 
​
I feel better and I have more energy (and daresay I look better!!). 
Thank you, Lisa. To everyone else out there, sign up with Lisa one-on-one if you can, and if you can’t, sign up for the 12 week Body Transformation program."

"I received Lisa Swanson’s Body & Soul Coaching program for women over 50 as a gift from my Husband.  It has truly been the gift that keeps giving!!!! 
 
In just 2 months I lost 17 pounds and several inches all over.  

I have tried almost every program out there for weight loss quick fixes in addition to personal training.  I have always started and stopped and never really learned anything, therefore repeating the same thing over and over. 

Most programs fail because they lack the sustainability to fit your life.   I live an incredibly busy life, as do most people today and am constantly on the run.  The difference with Lisa Swanson’s program is that it is designed to specifically meet everyone where they are at in terms of health, fitness and time. 
 
Lisa’s knowledge of total health and fitness is shared in person, on the phone, text, video, email.  You can literally stay focused on the program anytime and anywhere!  Additionally, Lisa is so encouraging even when you have no time at all to fit things in and will help you figure out solutions such as doing just 15 minutes or if you have a weekend away with friends how to balance fun, eating and drinking and still stay on track with the program.  You may not lose that week but you don’t gain and stop the program because you have blown it.  

You can go as fast or as slow as you need and Lisa is always there for support and provides incredible knowledge so you actually learn about foods and movement that fits YOU!  The videos and check-ins she provides teach you about eating, drinking water, exercise with the appropriate form, and a whole lot more.  Lisa will provide you with the modifications you need to fit your body using the exercises provided or tailor to your gym or travel needs.
 
I am looking forward to my next couple of months as I continue this journey and feel confident that success is possible because of the knowledge and support I receive from Lisa Swanson!"

"I love Body & Soul Coaching! I work with Lisa, and she is awesome. I've been working with her for about 3 years now. I am seeing more definition in my arms, and my legs are definitely becoming leaner and tighter. I am much more aware of my nutrition and how many calories I am consuming as well as what type of foods I should be eating in terms of good carbs and healthy fats. She works with you to find out what is the best schedule and exercises for you so you are set up for success! She also creates nutrition guidelines for you, which is so helpful because nutrition seems like it is always the hardest part of fitness plans! She is always easily accessible and will get back to you quickly. Finally this is now a lifestyle and not a diet. Will definitely keep working with her!"

“Not sure how, but I came across Lisa’s page and something told me to check it out.  Well I did just that.  I was a little reluctant at first, being it was something I came across on the Internet.  Again, something told me to “Just Do It.”

I’m so glad I listened to my inner self.  To date, I’m down 7 lbs. and it’s only the first week. (Keep in mind, muscle weighs more than fat!)
I struggle to stay motivated but with Lisa’s personal touch, advice, and daily post I have managed to stay focused.  It’s not easy and yes to be honest for me it’s hard.  I would like to take this time to say thank you Lisa, you have inspired me, motivated me and helped me realize I can do this. 
​
I remind myself of something I heard Lisa say in one of her videos: “To not workout is not an option!” Love it!
​
With that said, if you’re thinking about doing one of Lisa’s programs, do yourself a favor.  Just Do It!  It’s a great way to kick start your journey to health and fitness.  I’m 55 years old and with the help of Lisa’s programs and advice, I know I can reach my goals.”​

"It's not just an exercise program, it's health and nutrition too. I was eating the right foods but at the wrong time and the wrong balance. This program gave me the success I never got working with other trainers.  I've lost over 20 lbs and feel great!"
